Michael was a child king, only 6 years old when he followed his grandfather, King Ferdinand, to the throne in 1927. His uncle, Prince Nicholas, was "senior regent". "I remember very little from those years," King Michael recalls. "There are mostly just 'images'. I can remember that my mother was there." (Princess Helen was divorced from King Michael's father, Prince Carol, in 1928). with a Royal Court. Another big mistake was to continue as a king his adolescent passion for a women--Elena Lupescu--instead of forgetting her once he stepped on the throne. He had abdicated in favor of his son Michael. Of course the boy-king at this young age had nothing to do with actual government.
